Al-Qaeda claims suicide bombing in Algeria
| Quote: |
Compiled by Daily Star staff
Thursday, July 12, 2007
A suicide bomber blew up a refrigerated truck packed with explosives inside a military encampment southeast of the Algerian capital Wednesday, killing 10 soldiers and wounding up to 35 in an attack claimed by Al-Qaeda's North African wing. The blast in Lakhdariyya village 120 kilometers east of the capital in the violence-plagued Kabylie region happened hours before the opening in Algiers of the All Africa Games, a prestigious sports event regarded as Africa's Olympics which Algeria is hosting. |
It must be cause the US invaded Iraq

Al -Qaeda's No. 2: Jihad against Pakistan
CAIRO (AP) � Al-Qaeda's No. 2 issued a new videotape on Wednesday calling for Pakistanis to join the jihad, or holy war, in revenge for the attack by Pakistan's army on a radical mosque.
Ayman al-Zawahri's 4-minute, 24-second address was entitled "The Aggression against Lal Masjid" and entirely focused on the recent clashes between Islamic students and Pakistan's army at the mosque.

The video was released by al-Qaeda's multimedia branch, as-Sahab. Its authenticity could not immediately be confirmed, but two U.S.-based terrorism monitoring groups also reported it.
"Muslims of Pakistan: your salvation is only through Jihad," al-Zawahri said in the video, which was subtitled in English. |

Poor JooJoo, you are blissfully ignorant.
4. Terrorists do not check the passports of their random western targets. Especially when they are trying to destabilize a local government by driving out all western tourists. Kill 'em all is all they want. They killed some random western tourists in Yemen.
3. Pakistan assisted the US in ousting Bin Laden from his hard won home base in Afghanistan. So, of course they're gonna be active in this neighborhood enemy of theirs. (And the US invasion of Afghanistan was legitimate self defense and not intervention, although the Congress should have issued a formal Declaration of War as required under the constitution.
2. The UK is in Iraq, Joo, in case you haven't looked. So, they are angry and will do anything that can stir up trouble there. The UK is, after all, an enemy of Al Qaeda.
1. Now you're getting to the recruitment activities of Al Qaeda. In order to obtain funding and volunteers, Al Qaeda must be seen as the defender of all opressed Muslems everywhere; as the leader in the war of liberation of the Moslem world. So, they have to have activities outside the scope of their real objectives.
This is a propaganda based effort for recruitment and fundraising. It is advertising and PR for terror.
So, what do they fight for? They fight to have a country where they (Bin Laden and his top cadre) can rule. BL wants to be a king somewhere. He wants to win. That's all. Then he wants to return to his homeland, Saudi Arabia, as the great liberator and leader and be king there. Following that, he would seek to make peace with the outside world while consolidating his power base inside SA. He and his henchmen would create a religious, personality based dictatorship and attempt to rule and survive.
Your nonsense about the Caliphate shows that you have been taken in by their propaganda, just like the foolish, radicalized children who follow Al Qaeda and blow themselves up.
Many of our leaders are unable to fathom the real world, and that is why we have gotten into the mess we are in today. |

| To be honest is Algeria Western friendly? I don't see the logic in causing terror and destruction there. Perhaps someone can enlighten me as I don't know much about that country. |

Well, back in the '90s they had that miltary coup against the Islamic party that had won the elections. If I recall correctly, that coup was openly supported by the French, and other western powers were happy to just look the other way. So, if I'm correct in thinking that the guys in power now are the successors of the people who led the coup, then yeah, they could probably be considered pro-western, or at least anti-Islamic fundamentalism. |

As for the topic of this thread:
The more accurate question would probably be...
"Group setting off bombs in Algeria claims to be part of Al Qaeda. Why?"
And the answer...
"Because it gets them more media play than if they just admitted to being a bunch of two-bit losers with more bombs than brains." |

How much assistance did Pakistan really give? They seem to be pretty lax on letting Al Qaeda friendly militants take on India don't they?

Right and Rushdie has nothing to do with it?
Of course there was the Bali bombing which had nothing to do with Iraq but it happend anyway. Care to say why?

Only Saudi Arabia? In fact Bin Laden gave Afghanitan the name of the Islamic emerate of Afghanistan.
Saudi Arabia is part of it. But it doesn't stop there.
